Is it mandatory for drivers to purchase insurance for electric cars?

Under Hong Kong laws, all vehicles on the road must have third-party liability insurance for personal injury or death. This provides basic protection for vehicle owners and is a basic requirement for automotive insurance in Hong Kong. This applies to both gasoline and electric cars.

Do you recommend that drivers on a probationary license purchase electric cars?

Due to the higher risk of accidents, very few insurers offer coverage for electric cars to new drivers. Therefore, we recommend that new drivers accumulate some driving experience before purchasing an electric car. You don’t want to be in the awkward situation where you’ve made a deposit but then fail to secure car insurance.
